[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No and at that point, I would be super nervous about DH going alone - I have too many friends who have had perfectly healthy pregnancies and still gone into labor early and had their husbands camped out at airports, desperately trying to get onto flights standby at huge expense, to get back to them (and not all made it back in time).

Skip it and let them know you'll come visit with the baby when its safe and you are ready for everyone to travel. [/quote]

I find this hard to believe - that you personally know multiple people with healthy pregnancies who have gone into labor at 33 weeks while their husbands are a flight away. That scenario really doesn't happen all that often.[/quote]

PP here.  That's a fair statement but I do personally know two women that this has happened to.  Both women's waters broke early.  To be fair, I don't know the exact number of weeks for either woman but one was two months early and the other was about a month and a half early, so in the same ballpark.  One husband made it back in time (barely), the other didn't.     I know another woman who went into labor (with her husband there) at 35 weeks.  I know it doesn't happen all that often, but it does happen.   [/quote]
